  • 2008 Inventory Location Maps
    2008 INVENTORY LOCATION MAPS Eight years ago, we added a new feature to the Inventory Location Maps; Community Board borders. With this added feature, the reader will be able to identify within which Community Boards bridges are located. On these maps, all Community Boards consist of three (3) digits. The first digit is for map plotting purposes. The next two digits identify the Community Board. In cases of certain parks and airports, the Community Board number does not correspond with any Community Board. These exceptions are: Bronx 26=Van Cortlandt Park Brooklyn 55=Prospect Park 27=Bronx Park 56=Gateway Nat’l Rec. Area/Floyd Bennett Field 28=Pelham Bay Park Queens 80=La Guardia Airport Manhattan 64= Central Park 81=Alley Pond Park 82=Cunningham Park 83=JFK Airport 84= Gateway Nat’l Rec. Area/Fort Tilden-Jacob Riis Park The Community Board listings correspond to those listed in the inventory, which begins on page 209. Some structures fall on Community Board dividing lines: their additional Community Boards are now identified in the inventory in columns CD2 and CD3. Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Williamsburg Bridges.

  • Improving Bus Service in New York a Thesis Presented to The
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Columbia University Academic Commons Improving Bus Service in New York A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of Architecture and Planning COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY In Partial Fulfillment Of the requirements for the Degree Master of Science in Urban Planning By Charles Romanow May 2018 Abstract New York City’s transportation system is in a state of disarray. City street are clogged with taxi’s and for-hire vehicles, subway platforms are packed with straphangers waiting for delayed trains and buses barely travel faster than pedestrians. The bureaucracy of City and State government in the region causes piecemeal improvements which do not keep up with the state of disrepair. Bus service is particularly poor, moving at rates incomparable with the rest of the country. New York has recently made successful efforts at improving bus speeds, but only so much can be done amidst a city of gridlock. Bus systems around the world faced similar challenges and successfully implemented improvements. A toolbox of near-immediate and long- term options are at New York’s disposal dealing directly with bus service as well indirect causes of poor bus service. The failing subway system has prompted public discussion concerning bus service. A significant cause of poor service in New York is congestion. A number of measures are capable of improving congestion and consequently, bus service. Due to the city’s limited capacity at implementing short-term solutions, the most highly problematic routes should receive priority. Routes with slow speeds, high rates of bunching and high ridership are concentrated in Manhattan and Downtown Brooklyn which also cater to the most subway riders.

  • Epilogue 1941—Present by BARBARA LA ROCCO
    Epilogue 1941—Present By BARBARA LA ROCCO ABOUT A WEEK before A Maritime History of New York was re- leased the United States entered the Second World War. Between Pearl Harbor and VJ-Day, more than three million troops and over 63 million tons of supplies and materials shipped overseas through the Port. The Port of New York, really eleven ports in one, boasted a devel- oped shoreline of over 650 miles comprising the waterfronts of five boroughs of New York City and seven cities on the New Jersey side. The Port included 600 individual ship anchorages, some 1,800 docks, piers, and wharves of every conceivable size which gave access to over a thousand warehouses, and a complex system of car floats, lighters, rail and bridge networks. Over 575 tugboats worked the Port waters. Port operations employed some 25,000 longshoremen and an additional 400,000 other workers.* Ships of every conceivable type were needed for troop transport and supply carriers. On June 6, 1941, the U.S. Coast Guard seized 84 vessels of foreign registry in American ports under the Ship Requisition Act. To meet the demand for ships large numbers of mass-produced freight- ers and transports, called Liberty ships were constructed by a civilian workforce using pre-fabricated parts and the relatively new technique of welding. The Liberty ship, adapted by New York naval architects Gibbs & Cox from an old British tramp ship, was the largest civilian- 262 EPILOGUE 1941 - PRESENT 263 made war ship. The assembly-line production methods were later used to build 400 Victory ships (VC2)—the Liberty ship’s successor.
